Wise Men Say...

Bitter words spoken.
That still sting.

You heard the saying"A wise old man once said..."Well it wasn't him. Not this time anyway;This time it was a fucking psycho of a man. And he said, one day I would wake up, And I'd be forty, And my mum would be dead. And I'd have nobody. I'd be alone in the worldAnd I'd just exist...Then die lonely. Romantic soul he was. Then;A month before my 40th birthday,My mum died. And I woke up,Realising I was 40And my mum had died. And I hated that I thought of him. And I hate that I still think of him, And wonder— How much more did he get right.
